After School Activities: Dubai Kids Discover Antidote to After-School Boredom

Your kid has just come off from school. But you and your spouse are still stuck at work. The traditional routine has been for your kid to watch TV, make himself a snack, and wait for you to come home. Maybe your kid breaks up the routine by playing videogames or watching videos on YouTube. While such activities do pass away the time, you may have better, more stimulating options for your kids to do after school.

After-school activities play a crucial role in your kid’s development. They help expand your kid’s mind and allow him to participate in different social settings. The after school activities Dubai has to offer can be organized in schools and in communities. You can choose to sign up your kid for school programs that reflect his interests like sports, music, or art. And you can also look into the after-school programs that your community has set up. Some of these programs may even help your child excel in academics.

One option may be to get your kid into a math learning center. Now it is not as anti-fun as you would think. Granted, getting your kid to improve his math skills is not exactly his idea of fun, after school. Consider first that math educators are now coming up with more effective and more engaging methods for kids to develop mathematical abilities; it works even for the most reluctant math learner.

Mathematicians have discovered different ways to keep kids deeply interested in the subject while they gain valuable knowledge about number facts, equations, fractions, proportions, and theories. They can even relate math to real life situations so well that your kid will begin to make sense of even the most complex equations or problems. Math centers of this caliber may also introduce exciting contests between kids, like a math marathon, which should fuel your kid’s competitiveness and heighten his interest.

Consider next that your kid, through after school math sessions, may actually unlock abilities that would help determine his future. When a kid discovers that his seeming inability to concentrate and excel in the classroom is not in any way a reflection of his intellectual aptitude, he will begin to take every challenge head on. And he will eventually gain the drive that could spell great success for his future.

Don’t let your kid get sucked into a routine that will do nothing for his future. Give him a challenging and fun after-school activity. And consider a unique and engaging math learning center today.

Before I came to Mathnasium, I could sum up everything I felt about math in one word; ‘EVIL!’ I hated math. I used to think that if the devil had a last name, it would be ‘Math!’ Numbers and equations always confused me, patterns and graphs made me sweat, and let’s not even get started on measurements.

Mathnasium has been my safe haven. They truly have shown me the light when it came to addressing my fear and provided me with the tools that I need to rebuild my prior knowledge so that I won’t forget it. Trust me, I won’t! Math is no longer a subject I shy away from but it is a subject I can boldly accept and understand. I went from failing tests to scoring 100 points higher on my SATs in less than two months. Now that’s a real ‘test’imony! I have raised my confidence and my best scores, all thanks to Mathnasium!
